Replying To Greengrass1: "It cant really. There were former hurling clubs in Kilbeggan,Streamstown Horseleap,Rosemount,Moate and Drumraney at different stages. Some of them managed to get as far as a senior final but all of above areas now feed into two hurling clubs namely CTG for the first five areas and Fr Daltons for Drumraney. At present, a large percentage of CTG's underage comes from Streamstown,Rosemount, Kilbeggan axis and if a Hurling club were to develop there, then it strips the underage set up of CTG apart. BTW, this is not anti CTG but just the reality of same." CTG are fielding two teams at the likes of u12 with a lot of players coming from Kilbeggan Streamstown and Rosemount as well so I agree with what your saying however it also indicates strong interest in hurling across those areas as well which could be explored.

Replying To monaghanmad4567: "listen to GB on off the ball youtube there. Really honest insight into his ways and how he was treated.
All roads leading to say that Malacy O Rourke will return to Monagan now and Paudie Joyce will go to Tyrone. Come back to this comment when it happens.
HERE WE GO O ROURKE TO MONAGHAN!" In fairness not sure what complaints GB could have after the Louth game ... a game that should have been there for the taking and despite all, I don't think he really brought Monaghan on during his tenure. He's managed some high profile teams up here in Dublin & I could say the same. I think Monaghan would have put a better fight up to Mayo and who knows, got to a final.

Pauric Joyce gone from Galway. Could be a potential Monaghan candidate as he didn't want to give it up

Replying To ExiledCuCu: "Has anyone heard of a rule in a head to head championship group table where both teams are on equal points, but the team that scores more scoring points is considered better than the other team even though the other team has a better for/against amalgamated points difference?" If it helps, I can tell you the Wexford LGFA rules for if two teams finish level on points. Strangely, it doesn't appear to be covered in the general LGFA Rule Book.
1 - If either team has conceded a walkover, or has conceded more walkovers than the other team, then they finish in the lower position of the two.
2 - If no walkovers, the result of the head-to-head match between the sides decides who finishes higher.
Those two are the same as in GAA, but here's where it becomes different:
3 - If the head-to-head match was a draw, the next consideration is which sides has got the most scores. Not the best score difference, or even the best total. Every score counts as a single, so for example, 4-40 (44 scores) would beat 10-30 (only 40 scores), despite the fact that the 10-30 is actually worth more on the field of play.
4 - If the number of overall scores is the same, then it goes to overall score difference, with the value of goals and points being considered in the normal way (i.e. a goal is now worth three points again, rather than just being considered one score).
So, if I'm understanding your question correctly, I think that's the same. A team with more scores (and doesn't matter if they're goals or points) would be ranked higher than a team with a better overall score difference.

Replying To Leitrim2024: "Predictions for this weekend
Player availability and injuries have had the biggest impact on teams this year. The rock-hard pitches have contributed towards a hugh amount of knee and ankle injuries.
Senior
Allen Gaels v Aughawillian
Both teams have been unlucky with injuries. I think Allen Gaels should be too strong and will book their place in the quarter-final.
Allen Gaels by 5
Fenagh v Ballinamore
Defence wins games and forwards decide by how much. For that reason, I'll give Ballinamore the nod, but it will be tight.
Ballinamore by 1
Mohill v Manorhamilton
Both teams are close to full strength. Mohill has been very dependent on Keith Beirne for scores. It would be great for the championship if Manor could sneak this, but I think Mohill will steal this. Manorhamilton's better scoring difference over the 3 teams below them might be enough to see them scrape into the quarter-final.
Mohill by 3
St Mary's v Leitrim Gaels
Will Leitrim Gaels rest some of their walking wounded? It's a must win for Mary's, or they will face a 2nd relegation final in a row.
Mary's necessity for victory might swing it.
Mary's by 1
Semi finalists
Mohill, Ballinamore
Quarter finalists
Leitrim Gaels
St Mary's
Allen Gaels
Manorhamilton (on scoring difference over Fenagh)
Relegation Final
Aughawillian v Fenagh
Junior A
The fact that senior teams Mohill, Ballinamore and St Mary's are playing Saturday, will be a factor with player availability.
Glenfarne v Cloone
Huge game for both clubs. The loser could end up facing a relegation final.
Home advantage might be enough.
Glenfarne by 2
Aughnasheelin v St Mary's B
St Mary's looks to be the strongest of the second teams, but Aughnasheelin should edge it.
Aughnasheelin by 3
Ballinaglera v Ballinamore B
Ballinaglera was shocked last week by Cloone. It won't happen this week.
Ballinaglera by 5
Eslin v Mohill B
This could be a classic. Eslin might edge this, but it won't be easy. Eslin will have targeted this game. As the 1982 Offaly manager Eugene McGee said, "There's Eslin men in that dressing room who haven't had a pint since last Wednesday," Eslin by half a point." When did Eugene McGee say that? I thought he was talking about his Offaly team?

Replying To Alwaysencourage: "No it doesn't.Players are making it look like opposition not giving ball back and they are.Its treating players like children Place ball on ground should be more than enough.This rule is not in any other sport." So what if it's not in any other sport. Irrelevant
